Every 3 h, measurements of pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) were made and cardiac output was determined from thermodilution curves with iced saline in triplicate.
As the wedge pressure also increased in the patients of group B, whose right ventricular volume decreased after PLE, and the transoesophageal echocardiographic images did not show any apparent shift of the interventricular septum in all patients, we conclude that the increase in preload may have been the probable explanation for this haemodynamic change.
When analysing the haemodynamic data, a difficulty can arise in interpreting the pulmonary capillary wedge pressure increase; whether this change is due to an increase in left ventricular preload that follows the increase in venous return, or to a decrease in left ventricular compliance as a result of the leftward shift of the interventricular septum for right ventricular dilatation [ 16, 22].
